Topic: another new puppy related anxiety (Read 800 times)

thanks tal.you're right i didn't want a dog and i should never have agreed to it. my family wanted one for a long time, and i finally gave it.i regret it so much. i'm trying to learn to live with the decision though today's anxiety is making it hard.

my dr just called me and said she did not think that i was really at risk. my neutropenia is more related to bacterial infections than it is viruses, for one thing. also, she said that the type of vaccine, modified live, is not likely to cause any disease so she didn't feel like i was at risk. she said my dog could still get the next round, so she must not be concerned.

she is very concerned about bacterial infections from the dog biting me though, which is fine..i can handle that
